Welcome to my blog!

As a lighting designer for over 25 years, I have helped create an incredible array of environments. Lighting, a crucial part of any event, helps enhance the mood while creating a logical path for eye to follow. It is with this approach that I speak as a digital photographer and image maker.

(well, thats all I have for now. Check back soon for more profound words....LOL)

Capturing the light before the guests arrive

“The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.” – Oprah Winfrey

If the day goes as planned, there is a little window of time…quiet time…..just before the guests arrive. After the band has sound checked, the wait staff has finished laying the flatware, the lighting is focused (thanks to my HyLite Team), and the florist has left the building, the creation for the night is ready to be photographed. Its like a playground for the camera photographer! My only regret is that I didn’t capture a few “before” or “without the event lighting” shots. (I really need to remember to so that!)

Still amazes me what is created in such a short amount of time for one night!
